Ashampoo AI Assistant: A Comprehensive Text-Based AI Solution for Windows

If you feel you are always tethered to the browser for AI, now is a change: You can have a Windows application, Ashampoo AI Assistant, offering a holistic AI experience, though with many critical features missing.

AI Integration on Windows: What You Get to Experience

Microsoft has made more accessible Microsoft’s version of AI chatbots through its recent integration of Copilot into Windows. Not only that, but its free tier includes web searching through voice, text, and images, AI image generation through DALL-E 3, plug-in support, and non-peak hours for GPT-4 Turbo access. Most of it, for $20 a month, includes things like priority access to GPT-4 Turbo and full integration with the Microsoft Office suite.

However, this fully integrated Copilot is actually and only officially supported for Windows 11 and some of the limited-capability Windows 10 PCs that are in Preview. Again, Copilot is accessible via a browser, but all these features are lacking in the integration provided by Windows.

Ashampoo AI Assistant: A True Competitor

AI assistant Ashampoo — $11 per month — AI desktop application for Windows deals closely with text and is the ideal tool to use for text translation, text generation, text analysis, summarizing, and also as an interactive chat platform. It is fine-tuned to enable features in Windows 10 (64-bit only) and Windows 11; one of its kind with many capabilities brought by both, for instance, the use of keyboard shortcuts and macros.

Translation and Improvement of Text

Ashampoo AI Assistant can execute all that Copilot does in terms of text-related tasks, and in many cases, even better. The app, indeed, has a higher degree of efficiency in dealing with certain types of content such as Facebook posts and website text. The app allows templates and menus to prompt users on what to add, hence faster response times and better privacy by not using OpenAI’s training data.

With Ashampoo AI Assistant, there is no requirement of an OpenAI account. Keyboard shortcuts and macros have been provided in-app. Text can be lengthened, enhanced, compressed, proofread, paraphrased, and translated into many different languages, with different tones such as funny or professional. Customer feedback for translations, like Russian-speaking customers, has been great.

Social Media Posting

Content generation for social media will be so easy with this AI Assistant. It can generate Facebook and Twitter posts with emojis and ready to be pasted right into your social media sites. The capability to change the tone and regenerate the posts is especially useful for those who need to make multiple social media posts per day.

Interactive Chat and Limitation

The ‘Interactive’ section of Ashampoo AI Assistant supports some chatbot-style conversations. But its knowledge base is of October 2023 and doesn’t understand web search. So, one cannot get proper information about any recent event or update. While talking about historical topics and general knowledge, it is really good. Well-explained answers and even guidance with coding are also there.

No Picture Generation

Unlike DALL-E 3, which includes Copilot AI, AI image creation is not among the features that the Ashampoo AI Assistant supports. Of course, this is quite disappointing for users with the need to create their visual content using AI.

Conclusion

For a user with heavy work on text generation, Ashampoo AI Assistant is more or less useful. The ability to easily and quickly produce text at any rate justifies the $11/monthly subscription but for heavy users. For real-time updates on current events or image creation, one is more likely to look towards Copilot or free chatbot alternatives, like ChatGPT.

In summary, Ashampoo AI Assistant fills a niche for people who do large numbers of text creations daily by offering a tailored experience that is ahead of all free AI platforms despite the limitations in present knowledge and image creation.
